A phytochemical investigation of Ainsliaea macrocephala led to the isolation of a new dimeric sesquiterpene lactone, ainsliadimer A (1). The structure of 1 was elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, and confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Ainsliadimer A represents an unusual carbon skeleton with a cyclopentane system connecting the two monomeric sesquiterpene lactone units. This unique molecule exerted potent inhibitory activity against the production of nitric oxide in RAW264.7 stimulated by LPS.
对大头兔儿风进行植物化学研究,从中分离出一种新的二聚倍半萜内酯——兔儿风二聚体A(1)。通过光谱分析阐明了1的结构,并经单晶X射线衍射确证。兔儿风二聚体A具有不寻常的碳骨架,有一个环戊烷体系连接两个单体倍半萜内酯单元。这种独特的分子对脂多糖刺激的RAW264.7细胞中一氧化氮的产生具有强大的抑制活性。
